    Amidst all the excitement yesterday, did anyone notice the Thunderbird following the Scotsman, reminded me of a Morris Marina shadowing a Top Gear challenge.

    Due to the huge crowds at Carlisle yesterday, it was almost impossible to get a decent picture of FS on yesterdays Railtour. Here is my best effort as she was dragged out of the station.
